Story
Alfred is a 3 year old Shih Tzu with a story that will tug at your heart and a personality that will instantly make you smile. Before rescue, Alfred did not know comfort or care. He was found in horrible condition, painfully matted, and living with a broken jaw that had gone untreated. For who knows how long, this little guy quietly endured pain no dog should ever experience. Somehow, he kept going and held onto his sweet spirit. Fast forward to now and Alfred is healing beautifully and ready for a home of his very own. Despite everything he has been through, Alfred is hands down one of the happiest boys around. His tail is almost always wagging, he adores people, and he is full of love. He gets along well with other dogs, enjoys car rides like a total pro, and his favorite place is snuggled up close to his people. His jaw healed a little crooked, giving him a permanent lopsided smile, and we find it completely endearing. Alfred is proof that a rough past does not define a dog. He is joyful, affectionate, and ready to soak up all the love he missed out on. Adoption fee is $400 and covers neuter, vaccines, parasite prevention, and microchip. If you are looking for a loyal little companion with a heart of gold and a smile that will melt you daily, Alfred is your guy. Apply online at Fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com

Story
Meet Poptart 🐾 Poptart is a sweet little Shih Tzu with a steady, easygoing personality. Our trainer describes him as a solid dog—the kind that’s straightforward, willing, and pleasant to work with. He’s crate trained, walks well on a leash, and has a fun quirk: he absolutely loves running on the treadmill and thinks it’s the best thing ever. Poptart would thrive in a calm, laid-back home where he can enjoy a predictable routine, leisurely walks, and some light exercise to keep him happy and balanced. He’s not demanding—just a good little dog looking for a peaceful place to land and a person to call his own. 💛 Adoption fee: $300 This includes his neuter, up-to-date vaccinations, parasite prevention, and microchip. Visit www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com to fill out an application. Transport to Hagerstown, Maryland or Newtown, Pennsylvania available for $165 transport fee plus cost of health certificate.
